21、   I still remember I was 11 years old when I asked my mom for piano lessons in 2010. We were in the fallout of the recession (经济衰退). She said a polite “no”.

That didn’t stop me. I Googled the measurements for a keyboard, drew the keys on a piece of paper and stuck it on my desk. I would click notes on an online keyboard and “play” them back on my paper one - keeping the sound they made on the computer in my head. I spent six months playing without touching a real piano. Once my mom saw that I was serious, she borrowed money and bought me 10 lessons.

I still remember the first one. I was struck by how real the sound of the piano was. I sat my grade one after eight lessons. Once I started secondary school, we couldn’t afford lessons again. I passed grade three, then grade five, practicing only on my piece of paper.

One evening, when I was about 13, my mom said she had a surprise for me; it was an electronic keyboard, bought with more borrowed money. It was the first time I’d played for her. She was in shock.

My school didn’t offer music A-level. I found the Purcell School for young musicians. The tryouts were difficult. Some of the questions involved an estimation (评价) of the composer or when it was written. I felt overwhelmed. To my amazement I was offered a place.

At Purcell, I spent two years working as hard as I could. I performed to raise money and saved enough to buy my first piano.

When I left Purcell, I was awarded the senior piano prize and senior academic music prize. I am now at the Guildhall School in London. I feel proud: it’s been 10 years since I drew my paper piano, and I’m at one of the world’s leading music schools.

The irony is that I continue to do a lot of my practice away from the piano: what we call mental practice. The paper piano helped spark my curiosity about how music works, the building blocks that form the pieces.

【1】Why did the author’s mom buy him lessons at last?

A.She suddenly made a fortune. B.She had no doubt of his talent for piano.

C.She realized he meant what he said. D.She was shocked by his first performance.

A.honest and practical. B.determined and hardworking.

C.humorous and reliable. D.rebellious and pessimistic.

【3】The word “irony” in the last paragraph shows that the author was _______.

A.surprised B.absurd

C.satisfied D.curious

【4】What’s the author’s main purpose of writing this article?

A.To introduce the method of mental practice.

B.To share how he convinced his mom to buy a piano.

C.To encourage people to stick to their dreams.

D.To describe how costly it is to learn an instrument.

22、   This year’s holiday photos will have an undoubtedly pandemic feel: 【1】. Santa is hosting drive-through events, attaching face shields to his hat and trading with disposable gloves rather than his white cloth ones to protect himself —and others.

“【2】,” said Mark Brenneman, 70, who has been playing the role of Santa for nearly five decades. “They want hope. They want normal.”

Bass Pro Shops began offering free photos with Santa during the 2008 recession, when the country was in need of a collective pick-me-up.【3】. Now the outdoors retailer is hoping to re-create some of that magic, even if Old Saint Nick is stuck behind a shield and elves are pulling double duty as “Santa’s sanitization squad.”

The SoNo collection, a mall in Norwalk, Conn., is offering virtual visits this year for $25. But for those who would like to see Santa in the flesh, he’ll be greeting shoppers from inside an acrylic snow globe on the third floor.

“【4】—the Spanish flu, the bubonic plague — and I just couldn’t bring myself to tell my kids that he was afraid of covid-19,” said Kathryn Burgess, a photographer who designed the snow globe and spent $10,000 producing it. “【5】.”

Her acrylic barriers, which she sells for as much as $4,000, are being used by nearly 50 malls, schools and hospitals this holiday season.

A．A visit to Santa Claus is always a big pleasure for children.

B．It turned out to be an overnight success

C．Santa has survived so many things

D．We find it difficult to deal with the situation

E．But we had to come up with a creative plan to protect him

F．No more sitting on Santa Claus’s lap or whispering in his ear

G．Santa can’t give out hugs or candy canes this year, but people still want to see him

23、Best Trucks for 2022 and 2023

2022 Rivian R1T

The 2022 Rivian R1T charges onto the market as the first mainstream electric pickup, and it makes a strong impression. The R1T is equal parts workhorse and adventure vehicle, though its electrified (通电的) powertrain needs to be further enhanced. Still, it’s the first of many electric pickups to come.

2022 Ford F-150 Lightning

The electrification of America’s best-selling pickup truck is a tall order, but it’s a job that the Ford F-150 Lightning has pulled of T wonderfully. The Lightning is powerful, efficient and capable. Apart from range limitations when towing (拖车), the F-150 Lightning is every bit the workhorse that full-size pickup truck buyers have come to expect.

2022 Jeep Gladiato

The 2022 Jeep Gladiator is an honest-to-goodness pick truck. It’s skilled at towing and pulling, it’s exceptionally capable off road, and its inner part is roomy and built to last. The trade- off is that the Gladiator isn’t as comfortable, quiet or well-equipped as others.

2023 GMC Hummer EV Pickup

The all-new 2023 GMC Hummer EV is designed to offer truck buyers a chance to replace their gas-powered pickups with battery-powered ones, and it’s a role that the Hummer EV should perform convincingly. It rides, handles, and speeds up better than just about any traditional full-size pickup on the market. However, that capability doesn’t come cheap, but overall, the new Hummer gets a lot of public attention in the small but growing electric truck market.

【1】Which of the following may perform best in the wild?

A．2022 Rivian R1T.

B．2022 Ford F-150 Lightning.

C．2022 Jeep Gladiator.

D．2023 GMC Hummer EV Pickup.

【2】What might the Hummer EV impress buyers most?

A．Its power system.

B．Its traditional role.

C．Its future market.

D．Its driving experience.

【3】What do the four kinds of trucks have in common?

A．They are electric pickups.

B．They are expensive.

C．They have large inner space.

D．They have disadvantages.

24、A train operator from Britain has made travelling more tranquil(安宁的). Heathrow Express passengers travelling on October 13 were treated to sessions with yoga influencer Celest Pereira, who has developed a 12-minute seat-yoga and meditation(冥想) sessions to help travelers relax. Travelers of all ages and abilities can perform the exercises safely from their seats-and it’s believed to be the first time a yoga class has taken place on a moving train.

To get passengers in the right frame of mind, the “Tranquil Train” carriage hosting the sessions was decorated with fresh eucalyptus(桉树). “This was a real pick me up, especially after a long overnight flight. The smell is so wonderful,” said Elizabeth, from Washington DC. The initiative was tested after a study also conducted by Heathrow Express, which identified the most worrying aspects of travel during the epidemic- including delayed departures (52%) and crowds (48%). Missing flights, trains, or buses (47%) also leads to anxiety and worrying you’ve forgotten something like your passport or the tickets (40%). Other worries include getting lost (38%), being separated from your luggage (33%), and missing travel announcements (29%).

Celest Pereira said: “Travelling can be a very intense experience-there’s lots going on, lots of things to think about, and it’s very deadline driven. By hosting these classes we are hoping to ease those pressures and help passengers be in the present moment.” Commenting on his experience, Joe Bence, a 26-year-old from London who was among those who boarded the Heathrow Express “Tranquil Train”, said: “I have such a busy life and usually look at my phone on the train-but today I completely switched off. The class was a nice distraction from life, it made my day.”

【1】How does the train operator make travelling more tranquil?

A．By hosting yoga classes during journeys.

B．By working out with an online celebrity.

C．By means of communicating with others.

D．By developing a good habit of workout.

【2】According to Paragraph 2, what did the study find?

A．Smell can get traveler relaxed spiritually.

B．Epidemic is to blame for a terrible travel.

C．Public transport users find travel stressful.

D．Losing properties worries travelers most.

【3】What can be known from Joe Bence's words?

A．His dream was realized.

B．He felt a sense of belonging.

C．His effort finally paid off.

D．He was refreshed by the trip.

【4】The best title for the text is probably

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。

Boys like to be considered to be popular with others. Martin was such a young and generous boy, who thought he had loads of good friends in school. He was always showing off to his family members that he had the maximum number of friends in school. Also, he claimed how friendly he was with everyone. His family members wanted him to recognize the reality, thus not being cheated in the future.

One day as he was talking triumphantly about his friends at home again, his father called him for a bet. Father said, “Martin, I bet you for the cycle you wanted.” Martin. “What’s the bet?” Father thought for a while and answered, “I bet you do not have as many friends as you think. Everyone is not your real friend. I’m sure many of them are nothing more than your classmates, in other words, they are just your fair-weather friends.” Martin, without a second thought, accepted the challenge.

However, he had no idea how to test whether his classmates were real friends or not, so he asked his father about the testing way. A bright smile spread across the face of his father, “Wait a minute. I have just exactly what you need. It is a special item in my collection. Let me go and bring it.” Martin waited curiously. Several minutes later, Martin’s father returned, walking towards him, looking like he was carrying something heavy. But Martin could not see anything.

His father explained, “You see, this is a magic chair. It is invisible, and it is rather difficult to sit on it. You take this to your school. If you manage to sit on it, the special chair will activate its magic. Then you will be able to tell who are your real friends.”

The next day, brave and determined, Martin took the magic invisible chair to school.
